What can proxy IP really do? A hands-on guide to real-world scenarios
Many people think that the proxy IP is the exclusive tool to engage in crawlers, in fact, this thing can do a lot of things. Last month, a cross-border e-commerce boss to find me, said that their store was always judged by the platform abnormal login, after changing the proxy IP directly save 50,000 wind control loss fee. Let's take a real example: for a team doing overseas questionnaire survey, the same IP will be judged as cheating if it is submitted repeatedly, and the success rate will be doubled directly after rotating with dynamic residential IP.
Here's the point:Choosing a proxy IP depends on the business scenario. We recommend dynamic residential IPs for data collection, and static IPs for account development, just like stir-frying, if you use the wrong type of IP, the effect will be greatly reduced.
How to choose between the three main ipipgo packages without stepping on the line?
It's clearer to go straight to the comparison table:
| Package Type | Scenario | Price advantage |
|---|---|---|
| Dynamic residential (standard) | Short-term data collection, price monitoring | 7.67 Yuan/GB/month |
| Dynamic Residential (Business) | High-frequency API calls | 9.47 Yuan/GB/month |
| Static homes | Long-term account operation | 35RMB/IP/month |
Recently, there is an overseas social media operation of the customer, the beginning of the figure of cheap with dynamic IP number, the result of the account survival rate of less than 30%. change to static residential IP, with the timing of posting strategy, now the account survival rate directly pulled to 85% above.
Hands-on API docking
Take Python as a chestnut, three steps to get the IP call:
import requests
First step to get the IP (remember to replace your own API key)
proxy = requests.get("https://api.ipipgo.com/get?key=YOUR_API_KEY").json()
Second step configure the proxy
proxies = {
"http": f "http://{proxy['ip']}:{proxy['port']}",
"https": f "http://{proxy['ip']}:{proxy['port']}"
}
The third step initiates the request
response = requests.get("destination URL", proxies=proxies)
Watch out for a pit:Remember to set up a timeout retry mechanismThe test found that after adding the retry logic, the request success rate can be increased from 82% to more than 95%.
A must-see QA collection for the little guy
Q: Is it legal to use a proxy IP?
A: As long as it is not used for illegal purposes is perfectly fine, many serious companies are using. For example, to do market research, price comparison system these are routine operations.
Q: Why do IPs sometimes fail quickly?
A: IP survival time of different packages is not the same, dynamic IP is recommended to control a single task within 15 minutes, long-term tasks directly on the static IP.
Q: How expensive is the Enterprise package?
A: The main difference is in the number of concurrency and IP purity. There is a cross-border e-commerce friends measured, the enterprise package IP throughput rate than the standard version of about 40% higher.
How do you pull the official wool over your eyes?
Although ipipgo doesn't have a public coupon code, real-world testing has revealed two hidden tricks:
1. Discounts are negotiated directly with customer service when purchasing in bulk, usually 10% off when purchasing from 5 accounts.
2. Renewal in the last three days at the end of the month is more likely to coincide with quarterly promotions
Last time, a customer purchased through a combination of packages on Double Eleven, the actual price on hand was equivalent to 7.8% off the official website price.
Finally, to tell the truth: choose the proxy IP with the object like, don't just look at the price, the key must look at the long-term stability of life. Used seven or eight service providers, ipipgo cross-border line is really stable, do overseas business of the basic disk this is enough.
